Cooper looks so nice! That's hilarious that he ate a whole loaf of bread! I am glad that our dog does not jump up to the table or counters. She stays on the floor where dogs belong. But getting into the garbage is not the dog's fault--it's too big a temptation to resist! You have to remove that temptation for him.

One of my past jobs many years ago was a poodle groomer. Since then it didn't matter what the dog breed I groomed my own dogs. I didn't like cutting nails though. I did it but would be a nervous wreck trying not to cut too short. The person who did the grooming on your dog did a great job. Dogs just like to eat whatever food is left out, don't they.

We use a service like that with our poodle. She's old and tiny and it was downright traumatizing for her to go to the grooming places at the pet store or vet- too many smells and sounds and big dogs and each groomer had a different approach with her. We found a mobile grooming service. Rhonda pulls up in front of the house in her grooming equipped truck, snuggles Sassy in her arms, and gives her a good bath and trim before returning her to our snuggling arms. It's perfect and also fits our hectic schedule so much better!!

That last photo just made me go AWWWWWWW! I said it out loud. I think my dog is jealous. I take my dog to a local groomer and he fights like the dickens when he realizes where he's going. I guess he doesn't like getting bathed and clipped. He runs out of there like his tail is on fire. He does look cute in the bandanna that the groomer ties around his neck. :)

Mom always said that copying is the sincerest form of flattery. In this case, she is wrong. Copying my writings/photos (without my permission) is just plain stealing. Mom might forgive you, but I won't. Don't do it.
